I agree with the other reader these run so small!! Im 5'7, 127, my dress pants are size two, usually a four in jeans..I ordered these in a four and the leg fit fine, but I could barely button them. I was also expecting the fabric to be a lot thinner (its more of a lightweight canvas), so I am not going to try a size 6. The stretch is fantastic though, they just don't meet my summer climbing needs.

Perfect for layering under a shell for cooler ski days, and perfect alone for warmer spring days. I love that the hood is removable, as well--makes it easier to layer. I am 5'8 120 lbs (size 2) and the small fit really well (everything was long enough!!) with a fitted baselayer under it.

These are amazing! Thick enough that I feel secure wearing them in public outside of climbing and yoga, but still great for wearing under skirts/dresses. I am right between a size 2 and 4 (5'8, 122 lbs) and the extra small fit great. Also had plenty of length for my long(ish) legs! I prefer them for yoga and climbing, but I have run in them and they were great--I just prefer my nike running tights for running--but if you are looking for one pair of tights to do it all, I cannot recommend these enough!!!!!

im so sick of eric pollard going on and on about how every ski he makes is just the best on everything...well, this ski sucks on anything but steep, deep powder, but hey, thats what its for, right!?! had them out all day on variable mixed conditions--the steep bowls at the top of mt. hood were dry and fluffy and the pandoras were fantastic. tree runs with 4 ft of powder, they handled like champs. i really noticed a difference with the early rise--my boyfriend was skiing line lizzies and was having issues getting his tips out of the heavy pow. after the bowls got tracked out we headed over to the other side of the mt, which was icy and windblown....i didnt know a ski could handle so poorly--because they are so soft, any "bump" you hit, they bounce you non-stop. The other skis in my quiver--the volkl mantras just plow through anything, so I wasnt used to being tossed around. Serious, my sports bra supported A cup boobs had a sad afternoon! So then off to the groomers....SLOW, again compared to my mantras, i couldnt get these things to move. to finish off the day, over on the lower mountain it was rainy, with soft slushy snow and they handled pretty well, since the snow was so soft they could plow through--but the tree runs had crusted over snow and again, pandora hell. Conclusion: kick ass ski for steep deep powder and agile turning in the trees--I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a super soft powder ski.....absolutely horrible for anything else. Oh, Im 5'7, 135 lbs and ski the 172's (170 is my standard length, so with the early rise, these are a tad shorter than Im used to). I would also seriously consider switching out my 4fnt vct's for these as my AT skis--they really are nice and light, I think my vct's are still more versatile though, since I only have 1 AT ski.

for as long as i can remember ive used patagonia capilene for my baselayers, however, i was bored with the simplicity and wanted a pattern, so I bought these and i LOVE them!! The stretch is fantastic, its as warm as a midweight baselayer should be, and the design and colors are fun. i would highly recommend these!! fit is true to size--5'7 140 lbs, a medium in everything i buy and this was no exception!

does anyone know if the neck issues were resolved on the new, 2010 version of this jacket? both my boyfriend and i bought this jacket in 2009 and the mens and womens both had insanely tight necks (an issue many other reviewers noted as well)...

i bought these on a recommendation and based on other reviews saying they worked well for small ears... unfortunately, they were still way too big for me even with the smallest silicone piece. if you have issues with earbuds being too big, these probably won't work either.

i thought this dress fit awful---i normally wear a small (5'7, 130 lbs) and purchased this dress in a medium--however, the sleeves were still incredibly tight on my bicep. On the plus side, the chest (34A) and hips fit really well.
